Trying to find birth records for william Curley born to Peter Curley about 1842.  A Peter Curley is listed in the Griffith's Valuation in these parishes i 1856- Abascragh, Killallaghton, Killoran, Killeroran, Killannin, and Kilbegnet. William was born in Ireland and he married my grandmother, Mary Collins, in St. Henen's England in 1865 before moving to the USA. I belive I need to convert these parishes to the Roman Catholic parishes so I can write to the Roman catholic churches about Peter and William.

  • Col, thanks for the reply and information. I will check out the Roots names but don't see much promis. I will check out the free records too. Do you know a web site that lists Catholic Parishes by Diocese like Galway? Have a Merry Christmas, Peter
